Good morning, friends! I
hope everyone is staying warm! We had some snow during the night and morning
and I think it's just crazy that when I went to church yesterday morning, I was
so hot because it was 70 degrees! Now, it's barely above freezing!

I have a 2 part request today.
First, I'm asking for prayer for my 11 year old cousin who is having her second
brain surgery tomorrow. She has CMV and they are hoping this second surgery
will help her to not have seizures every day. It won't prevent them from
happening, but it will help them not be as often. The first brain surgery she
had a few years ago has lessened the intensity of the seizures. So, I'm asking
for prayer for Isabel and for her parents and the doctors.

The second part of my request is
that I'd like to send her something special and I thought if any of you have
any little thinking of you cards laying around that maybe you could send me
with a special note to her in it? Or if you know of anyone who likes
to send cards to people, ask them to send one to her? Her name is Isabel and you can send them to my address. I'll be sending a package of cards from
some at my church as well, probably next week sometime. (and as more come in, I will send them on to her) If you are able to, I
would be so grateful! If you can't, please say a prayer or two for her.
Those are much more needed and appreciated more than you'll ever know on this
earth!

Good morning! I'd like to share a card with you today that I made for a friend on one of my design teams. I saw this little image at Kadoodle Bug Designs and immediately thought of her! The paper I got last year for a "Hope for Brady" blog train (unfortunately, they didn't put their name on the background, so I don't know which designer it is from! Here is a link to the beginning of the blog train this year, though! )

sparkle on the bee and butterfly, but they are sparkly!!! I also used rhinestones on the butterfly & flower.

I just love the whimsical design of this set!

Card 3:

(I left it blank so you can imagine your own possibilities of using a journal card!)
I used lots of rhinestones and some stickles to make the butterfly sparkle!
